So After 6 hour flight to LAX, 6 hour layover with some airline check-in problems, 10 1/2 hour flight to Nadi, Fiji, we finally made it and this is where we sat waiting for the bus to the Beachouse.

So life sure is tough when your big activity of the day is finding a Hammock to sleep in. Let me tell you it's almost hard to read, I just kept falling asleep

Another great example of what your all missing out on while sitting at your desks at work. People it's time for a change!!!

I'm just kidding, but no one buys coconuts at the market. You just find a local guy to climb a tree and get one.

Words really can't capture this moment. And this picture doesn't even do it justice.

We trekked for an hour through the muddy jungle, with more catapillers than I ever knew existed and this was the crew of people after the swim. Notice that everyone in the pic is in there mid-twenties. Make a mental note everyone, it is possible to travel the world.

These are the kids that couldn't get enough of me taking their pictures. Dani, a german girl on a world trek and I had a real special moment with these kids. And by the way look at those machetes.

101 Deli
Its awesome that your last real meal was 101. I hope it was roast beef, onions and gravy or honey turkey with cheese. As I sit in my office, while its 20 degrees out I can't help but be jealous that you guys had 101 deli last week. SO GOOD! 12 days left till the Hoffs get first tracks at Okemo. Hope you're having fun!
